How to Choose the Appropriate Mattress Size

Crib Mattress Dimensions

Before we start...here are the sizes:

Crib Mattress Dimensions

Twin Size: 39" x 75"

Twin Long (Twin XL): 39" x 80"

Full Size: 54" x 75"

Full Long (Full XL): 54" x 80"

Three Quarter Size: 48" x 75"

Queen Size: 60" x 80"

King Size: 76" x 80"

California King: 72" x 84"

Mattress Size Details:

Twin Size (also known as a Single): Twin size is large enough for one child or one small adult. It's also often ordered for a bunk bed, daybed, hi-riser, or as a mattress and a boxspring set for a small guest room. Twin size is good for a child, but keep in mind when they get older they may grow out of it.

Twin XL: Twin XL is used for dorm room mattresses as it gives the extra length for students who are tall. When you push two Twin XL mattresses together it forms a king size. Twin XL is also ordered for beds with electric adjustable bases as it prevents your feet from hanging off the edge of the mattress when the base reclines.

Full Size: (also known as a Double): Full size gives more comfort for one person as it has 15 more inches in width than a twin size. It is possible to fit two people into a full size mattress but it only gives each person 27" of width (which is the same width as a crib mattress).

Full Long (Full XL): The same width as a full but 80" long. Good if your tall but don't have the space for a queen. Note: Full long is usually the same price as a queen with most retailers as the wholesale price is often the same.

Three Quarter Size: This size is usually for an antique bed. Antique beds can usually be found at auctions. Most of the major manufacturers do not make this size.

Queen Size: This is the most common size mattress ordered for two adults. It gives six more inches of width for the sleeping area than a full size mattress and five inches more length.

King Size: This is the ideal size for two adults if you have the space in your bedroom.

It gives plenty of space between you and your sleeping partner. Because you are not as close to your partner, you also get a reduction in the transfer of motion making it less likely for your partner to wake you up.

California King: This is the ideal size for those really tall people. It gives you 4 inches less width than a King Size, but four inches more in the length. We have NBA players order this size.

Tips For Buying a Crib Mattress

A lot of new parents in Los Angeles are so busy that they completely neglect to buy a quality crib mattress. A lot of people don't realize it but a lot of the mattress that come with cribs are usually poor quality. This is why it is so important to invest in a proper mattress for your child. You baby is going to be spending a lot of time sleeping in their cribs, this is why you want to provide the most comfort and safety possible for them while they are in there. Unfortunately, there are not a lot of great resources available for people that are interested in learning more about these products. This is why we have put together a few tips to help you pick the perfect crib mattress for your son or daughter.

Crib Mattress Dimensions

Tip #1: When buying a mattress, especially a crib mattress, there are many things to consider. In the case of buying a crib mattress, you must consider what type of mattress would suit your child's needs best. There are four types of mattresses: innerspring, latex/rubber, foam/memory foam, and air/water. Generally speaking, crib mattresses won't be found in memory foam or air/water. The most common is innerspring closely followed by latex/rubber with foam coming in third. When considering crib mattresses, firmness and support come first. The mattress must be supportive enough for your baby's initial growth. The next factor is allergies and chemical exposure. In our early years we can have and develop allergies to many things, so it is always a great idea to confirm with your family pediatrician what to avoid when buying crib mattresses. In this vein, organic products suit a wide variety of needs and can be found at similar price points as non-organics.

Crib Mattress Dimensions

Tip #2: Once you have selected which style of mattress would be best for your child, you want to consider the characteristics of the mattress itself. A lot of crib mattress products that are available are not properly manufactured to suit the core needs your baby has: comfort, support, safety, and health. This is why it is important to invest in a quality mattress. When buying latex, rubber, or foam in particular, the density of the foam, latex or rubber should be high enough to properly support your baby's growing bones. Always be sure to find out what materials have been used in crafting the mattress as some prove to be more toxic than others.

How to Choose a Baby Crib Mattress

Now that you have a new baby (or soon to be), you should be concerned about your babies sleep. After all, a baby that sleeps well is usually a happy baby! Here is what to look for when choosing which baby crib mattress to buy so that your baby will have a good (and safe) nights sleep.

Crib Mattress Dimensions

Firmness:

Crib Mattress Dimensions

You want to choose a mattress that is firm. Not only will your baby sleep more soundly on a firm mattress (although possibly counterintuitive), but your baby will also be safer. A softer mattress can be the cause of suffocation and can certainly be a safety hazard. If its too soft, the babies mouth and nose could become engulfed in the fabric.

Fit:

Although this is usually not an issue, you want to make sure that your new mattress actually fits your crib. Most cribs come in standard sizes these day; however, it is important to double check. If the mattress is too small, this could pose a safety issue for your baby. The mattress should fit snugly against the crib.

Covers:

Mattress covers can also pose a risk of suffocation to your baby. Make sure that your cover is made from quality material that cannot be easily torn or punctured. This will prevent your baby from trying to crawl underneath.

Overall, keep safety in the forefront of your mind when shopping around for a new baby crib mattress. In particular make sure it is firm, that it fits, and that your have a durable mattress cover.

Buying a Mattress for Your Child - Online Buying Guide by Heather B (abridged) When its time to buy a mattress for your child, the determining factor will be the child's developmental age. However, no matter what age your child is, your child is still growing. The mattress you purchase for them should be supportive and comfortable, while being kind to a developing spine. Does your child suffer from allergies? Many manufacturers offer eco-friendly models that are ideal for hypoallergenic children. Certain types of children's beds don't require a box spring, such as the captain's bed or day beds. Otherwise, you're purchasing a mattress for a standard type of bed, plan on buying a box spring or foundation at the same time. A good foundation supports the mattress and stabilizes it, improving the overall quality of your child's sleep. You know its not going to last forever, but you'd want it to last as long as possible. In addition to safety issues, a "no jumping in bed" rule will protect your child's mattress from unnecessary wear and tear and possible irreparable damage. When shopping for a mattress for a child with a specific back condition, firm isn't necessarily better. Good support means that when an adult or child lies down on a mattress, it supports the person's spine and keeps it in perfect alignment as though the person

How to Select the Right Mattress for Your Baby's Crib

The prerequisites of a good quality crib include a perfect mattress. Even if you are using an old crib, the right kind of mattress will make it as good as new. So here we take you through the essentials when choosing a mattress for your baby's crib.

Crib Mattress Dimensions

1. The dimensions of the mattress should be checked against those of your crib. Choosing the right sized mattress shouldn't be a weighty problem, considering that most of the cribs and crib mattresses are made to set dimensions nowadays. However, standards might not be followed by certain doubtful brands. Generally, you should make sure that the mattress fits snugly in the crib frame, such that not more than one finger fits between both all the way around the crib.

Crib Mattress Dimensions

2. Buy a firm mattress! If the babies turn over at night, it's hard for them to lift their heads out of a soft mattress. To verify firmness- hold the mattress by placing your hands in the center on both sides, and compress. The tougher it is to press the mattress, the more firm it is.

3. Don't worry about the choice between a foam or coil mattress. In reality, it doesn't matter. Foam crib mattresses are not only light and easier to move around, but also less costly as compared to the other. Also, given they are not too soft, they are equally safe. In case of coil mattresses, more number of coils-though not always indicative of quality- make the mattress more firm.

4. For durability, always check the cover. Multi-layer covers, such as a triple layer of vinyl or water-resistant material, would be a good pick. These days, crib mattresses also come with a topmost layer that is anti- microbial in its properties. This cover is a great way to decrease adverse effects by germs resulting from burping, spit ups and mishaps with diapers.

5. Lastly, consider the cost. Spending to 0 on a crib mattress would be a reasonable expense, as you are sure to find a good quality, practical and hard-wearing mattress for that price. So in case you are on a budget, there's no need to agonize over the fact that you are not able to afford the best for your bundle of joy. As it is, spending more on mattresses will hardly fetch you greater features or better quality.

All well known companies know how hard it is for a first parent to make such choices. So, by providing the right quality and standardized features, they ensure that the choice of the mattress you make will effectively be the best one. You can also refer to online consumer guide for baby crib mattresses.

Mattress Sizes - A Guide to Choosing the Right Bed Sizes

The sizes of standard mattresses are probably well known to most people. But for those who want to have a little extra room in bed, perhaps because of a restless partner, then going for the largest size found on the mattress size chart is probably the only way to get a good night's rest. It would seem that the British do not have such a large choice in mattress sizes as the Americans. This may be due to the fact that houses in the UK tend to be smaller than those in America. Therefore, only the smaller beds are available as standard.

Crib Mattress Dimensions

Choosing The Right Bed Sizes

Crib Mattress Dimensions

For couples, particularly those living in Britain, bed sizes normally fall into the 48-inch wide range. This allows a little room to maneuver around at night but the couple is pretty much restricted to just 24 inches of bed space each. This is actually less than the room in a standard crib bed for a child! Indeed, as they get older, people may find that they will have to revert to twin beds so that each can get an adequate rest without disturbing each other.

In North America, where there is normally more room available in the bedroom, people tend to try out the larger king size beds. Standard mattress sizes are not only wider, but they tend to be longer too. This may have something to do with the population, as a whole, being taller than their British counterparts. Of course, American mattress sizes are always available at online stores, so the taller British can get hold of them, at a price! Shipping is extra in most cases, but for the sake of a healthy and prolonged sleep, those who are in need of the extra inches will decide on buying the American sizes, if they have the room.

Current Trends in Standard Mattress Sizes

For the first time ever, twin beds have overtaken the double or king size mattress in popularity. Many people have realized that in this ever faster moving world of ours, getting a good night's rest can make or break a career. Those suffering from sleep deprivation tend to be slower at work, more irritable, less likely to have a happy relationship at home and lots of other detrimental effects. Because of this, the twin bed is making a comeback in a big way. Of course, this doesn't mean that marriages are no longer viable. Indeed, having a spouse who is well rested makes for a happier relationship all round, and the kids benefit too from having a happier and more relaxed parent.

Children's Mattress Sizes

In America, the standard mattress size for a crib is approximately 28 x 52 inches. The single mattress size on a mini single bed in the UK is 30 x 69 inches. These sizes are more than adequate for any child until they start to grow tall. Since children's rooms tend to be smaller too, this will allow room for them to play in the room until they get older. After this, bunk beds or raised beds will allow more floor space for their study sessions or for having friends over.

It is apparent that through history humans have striven to be as comfortable as possible when they need to get some sleep. Gone are the days of mattresses stuffed with all kinds of random materials, and may we all be grateful! Today's mattress sizes and materials used, offer excellent prospects for a supremely comfortable night's sleep for even the most restless among us. All we have to do is discover which is the best bed size to fit the purpose. As an added hint, couples who want to sleep in the same bed should choose a queen size mattress as an absolute minimum to ensure that elusive eight hours sleep.

Best Crib Mattress Reviews

One of the biggest and most important items purchased for a new baby's nursery is the crib, there are so many different colors, sizes and styles on the market, it can be both fun and difficult to buy the one you feel is best for your needs.

Crib Mattress Dimensions

However, most cribs do not come with a mattress included, and therefore these are a separate purchase. And although the baby crib mattress may not be the most exciting piece of nursery equipment you may buy, they are certainly one of the most important and therefore should be given proper consideration.

Crib Mattress Dimensions

There are so many different brands, colors, styles, and materials, it can be difficult to select the right one. However you should try to purchase the very best one for the money you have available. The reason for this important investment to be given such serious consideration is due to the fact that your baby will spend many hours sleeping, resting, or napping in their crib. So the mattress you choose must be the safest, correct fitting, most comfortable and supportive that you can get.

Best Crib Mattress - How To Choose:

Firstly you must make sure you have your crib dimensions with you before you start looking for a suitable baby crib mattress.

Many will be looking for a mattress according to the budget they have available, and as said previously you should try to get the very best mattress for your bucks. Don't restrict your search to the local Mall, check out deals online too, you may find exactly the same mattress online at a fraction of the cost you find it in the shops, so do your research and some comparisons, it is really worth doing so for such an important item of nursery equipment.

The internal filling material of the mattress may also be an important factor in your search. So for example the internal filling can be latex, organic cotton, foam, coil springs, texture and firmness are to be considered also. You could also consider to choose a hypoallergenic, anti-dust mite & bacteria baby crib mattress, or a 2-in-1 mattress, where one side is suited to baby's needs, and then the mattress is turned when you are ready to use it for your toddler and is suited to their needs.

There are some variations in outer mattress fabrics color and materials too. Color may be a deciding factor, although unlikely as it will generally be covered and therefore unseen. However there are a range of different outer fabrics and styles to consider also.

So when looking to buy the best crib mattress, do some comparisons and research into baby crib mattress reviews, and try to get the absolute best crib mattress you can for your baby's health, hygiene, comfort and your budget.
